Verkoopregeling

Verkoopregeling is a term used in Dutch business and law to describe a set of rules and arrangements that govern the sale of goods or services between parties. It is commonly used in business-to-business contexts, such as between manufacturers, distributors, retailers, or sales agents, and may be included as part of a contract or adopted as an internal policy to standardize sales practices across channels. A verkoopregeling defines how a sale is conducted, including the scope of the products or services, pricing structures, discounts, payment terms, delivery arrangements, transfer of risk, warranties, returns, and after-sales obligations. It may also specify geographic territories, exclusivity or performance requirements, reporting duties, and remedies in case of breach.

In practice, a verkoopregeling is often embedded in a distribution agreement, agency agreement, or a supplier agreement, and it interacts with other documents such as verkoopvoorwaarden (terms of sale) and invoicing practices. It must comply with applicable law, including consumer protection rules, competition law, and tax obligations such as VAT. The exact content is tailored to the business relationship and market, aiming to create clarity, reduce disputes, and facilitate efficient sales operations.
